"When you're climbing at your limit and ounces count, count on the Sterling Nitro 9.8mm Climbing Rope to save your hide without weighing you down. Thanks to its abrasion-resistant construction, the Sterling Nitro not only last longer than similar climbing ropes, it creates less rope drag over rock and through gear. It's also available with a dry coating for those who occasionally find themselves climbing through a rainstorm."
From RockCreek:
"The 9.8mm Fusion Nitro Dynamic Rope by Sterling is the rope to take when you are going for that hard redpoint or onsight at the cliff of choice. When you are taking long whippers with multiple tries, the Fusion Nitro will stand tall to endurance and amazing handling.Climbers all over the world who have used the 9.8 Nitro have claimed it offers total control, smooth clips, zero drag and soft catches. The Fusion series of ropes are a hybrid of engineering and constructions of the Marathon and Evolution series ropes. The result is the lightest, skinniest single ropes in the history of Sterling. The 9.8mm Fusion Nitro Dynamic Rope also is made with their proprietary DryCore technology, that will help maintain the original strength and elongation of your rope in wet or icy conditions. All of Sterling's ropes are treated with DryCore but dry treated ropes then go through a process to treat the sheath and in turn also treats the core again. According to Kurt Smith, Sterling's rep, "This is a pain staking process - we double dip the rope and do the treatment twice to really get it to bond to the nylon..""
